JDK-4745231 - RFE: Anti-aliasing should be globally setable
Description

Name: gm110360			Date: 07/08/2003


FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
JRE Standard Edition (build 1.4.1-b21)
java HotSpot Client VM (build 1.4.1-b21, mixed mode)

FULL OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION :Windows 2000 [Version
5.00.2195]


A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
A machanism to turn antialiasing for text and/or graphics at
application level is required.  The current implementation allows
a programmer to turn antialiasing on/off for a given component
by extending the class.  This is very cumbersome if antialiasing
is desired across the full application.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

Comments
EVALUATION The references to components and sub-classing are a sure sign that this is a request for this capability on swing components. Providing this functionality automatically is covered by rfe 4502804 API to allow an app to choose the setting is covered by rfe 4745231. I am closing this as a dup of that. ###@###.### 2003-07-09 ============================
